Germany's DE40 index is trading at historic highs after rising almost 2% yesterday; we can see also much higher buyers volumes. The first support is set at the previous local high, and 23.6 Fibo retracement of the upward wave initiated in 7 August between 19,000 and 19,200 points. The next key support could be the range between mid-July peak at 18,861 and 38.2 Fibo at 18,60 level. Currently, the oscillators give the bulls grounds for further upside, with the MACD rising and the RSI consolidating near overbought levels. However, they are approaching overbought levels.
